It has been a busy few months on the road so I thought it would be a perfect time to showcase a little of what we have been up to!

In July this year we did a quick reccie for the upcoming vintage car rally in May 2026 with Destination Rally. In 2 weeks we managed to managed to tick off 5 countries and countless miles of new roads and experiences. As part of our work on the rally we assist in exploring new areas and roads for the competitors to take on as part of the 4 week tour around Southern Africa. Below is a brief snapshot of some of the things we got up to!
